CopyMemory() crashes VB

[Zvonko]

Hello!

Does anyone know why CopyMemory function crashes VB?

Here's the code I use:

    hLock = LockResource(hLoad)
    hSize = SizeofResource(hInst, hFind)
    
    ReDim b(0 To lsize) As Byte
    CopyMemory b(0), hLock, hSize
    
    FreeLibrary hInst

Sorry if I put you wrong. In my last post to you I included my CopyMemory decalre in case it is different to yours.

If you are using the same as mine, then try this:

CopyMemory b(0), ByVal hLock, hSize

thats because you want to tell CopyMemory to start copying memory from the VALUE of the variable "hLock"

What you are doing is telling it to start copying form the LOCATION of the hLock variable...
